Shaken and still processing the attack, Benjamin is tracked down by his friend Ariel (a wonderfully warm presence played by Nat Patricia Manuel), who was also at the party, and encourages him to go to the ER.

At the rapid-test clinic and ER, the staff question Benjamin tenderly; Murray cast people who work in health care in real life.

Shot quick and fast on a micro budget, I Don't Know Who You Are offers an unfiltered look at how easy it is to fall through the cracks, while also showing how artists and the queer community support each other in the face of a heartless health-care system.

Murray's camera hovers nearby as we watch Benjamin process his ordeal, self-medicating with wine, approaching old friends and hiding his desperation behind a shaky smile.

Murray, who's worked with Clennon before, brought the actor on board as a writer and editor, too, allowing him to add aspects of his own life to the film, including his apartment, cat and music.

From Clennon's input, to the real-life people playing medical professionals, and the director's own lived experience that inspired the film, there's a veracity to Benjamin's struggle that makes up for a somewhat over-tidy ending.
